Hello Rose

If you are feeling this bad I would urge you to contact your Doctors surgery , phone the Samaritans if you are seriously feeling and getting thoughts you don't want to be here you need to get some help

Make that call and get some support now

Take Care x

[MrsB08]

Hon are you ok....please talk to us x

[Roserose in reply to MrsB08]

I;m not good. cant stop shaking, or yawning. jut got off the phone to the doctor who has said to increase my dose up to 30 mg from 20 so have just done that and now I am very tense indeed. x

[Hidden in reply to Roserose]

Hello

I am pleased you have spoken to your Doctor

Remember it could take a few days and maybe a bit longer before you feel the benefit of the increase in meds and if you still feel bad do not hesitate in phoning them again

Not sure when your OH will be back or if he is with you now but let him know how you are suffering if he has not noticed all ready and let him support you , things will get better , see this as a dark cloud passing over but it will pass x

[Roserose in reply to Hidden]

Thanks bounce, I am xperiencing quite bad side effects from the increase? I feel drowsy, even more anxious, I'm shaking and my heart feels heavy, I am terrified. I am so scared I really am!!

[Hidden in reply to Roserose]

The more you fear the worse you will feel , easier said than done I know but true , it could be that your anxiety is so high making you feel more this way than the actual meds

You have spoken to the Doctor today so as he said increase them today I doubt you will feel that straight away

See how you go but if you are not happy then you must phone NHS Direct if your surgery is shut , remember that is what they are there for it is their job and they get paid to do it so you won't be putting anyone out x

[Roserose in reply to Hidden]

Tanks Bounce. Yes the doctor said I could up them x

[Hidden in reply to Roserose]

Give it time and if you are not happy then you must go back but fingers crossed this will work x

[MrsB08 in reply to Roserose]

What are you taking ? Can you call someone for some company? I think you need a distraction.... Remember ... THIS WONT HARM YOU . YOU ARE NOT ALONE x xxx

[Roserose in reply to MrsB08]

[MrsB08 in reply to Roserose]

Rose, I have had all the symptoms you have had. It's a good thing you spoke with your doctor. Are you feeling better?

[Roserose in reply to anxiousamber83]

Hello Amber, I felt calm last night but woken up this morning again with this horrible anxiety, and its really getting to me I just hate it, I'm so scared i have such a weight in my chest sickness in my stomach and sadness. I want this to be over so so bad!!

[anxiousamber83 in reply to Roserose]

I know how you feel. Morning anxiety ruins the rest of the day and puts you in fear of the next night. It's a nightmare and you feel you can't get on top of it. Don't just see a doctor. See an internist and a psychologist or counselor. They can both get you on the right meds. It's an imbalance and it's about finding what works for you. You do not have to live like this. I went through hell this past year. I thought life would never return back to normal. I had night terrors and morning anxiety. I felt like I was outside of my body and weak.

Seeing a counselor will help you to minimize the overwhelming fears when you're in that state. If you're already seeing one and not getting anywhere find another who will help. The meds, once you find the right one(lexapro for me) will help you to get your head out from below water to get a handle on it. But you will. You can get past this. I did and am my old self again. I can sleep without waking up to that terror. You will be OK! Keep following up with us.

Amber what sort of counsilor or therapist do I look for Iv hypothyroidism anxiety depression

[Roserose in reply to anxiousamber83]

Thank you Amber for giving me hope!! And for your I depth reply and words of courage!! Will keep you updated for sure. Today was another day the same unfortunately. Hope your okay? Xxx

[anxiousamber83 in reply to Roserose]

You're welcome. I know how alone it can make you feel. The "what ifs" and the "why me"... I'm great now and can't complain. It was a different story just a couple of months ago. Anxiety will always be there but I have my life back. I can combat it when it creeps up. I can sleep again without fear. That wasn't the case and never thought I'd say that. You will get there!

[anxiousamber83]

Hi Andy. Have you been diagnosed with hyperthyroidism by a doctor? I would see an internist or endocrinologist if possible. Read this article on what you should be asking them to test. It's not enough to to say "test my thyroid".

If you have then I would work closely with your doc and a psychologist or psychiatrist. They can guide you.

Second, there are many resources to find you a counselor. There are psychiatrist which can diagnose and perceive meds, psychologist who can provide contrive therapy and refer you to a psychiatrist for meds.

I dont know where you are but I just googled these specialist in my area and researched them. I asked my doc for his referrals and I called my insurance company. I looked up counselors on psychology today's site and I called my church. They all have list. A simple google search will give you names. Just make sure you see their credentials. Find 3-5 that you want to meet and look them up on the American board of psychology site (abpp.org). Then go from there! Good luck to you!
